Abstract
Heme is of great significance in food nutrition and food coloring, and the successful launch of artificial meat has greatly improved the application of heme in meat products. The precursor of heme, 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA), has a wide range of applications in the agricultural and medical fields, including in the treatment of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In this study, E. coli recombinants capable of heme production were developed by metabolic engineering and membrane engineering. Firstly, by optimizing the key genes of the heme synthesis pathway and the screening of hosts and plasmids, the recombinant strain EJM-pCD-AL produced 4.34 ± 0.02 mg/L heme. Then, the transport genes of heme precursors CysG, hemX and CyoE were knocked out, and the extracellular transport pathways of heme Dpp and Ccm were strengthened, obtaining the strain EJM-ΔCyoE-pCD-AL that produced 9.43 ± 0.03 mg/L heme. Finally, fed-batch fermentation was performed in a 3-L fermenter and reached 28.20 ± 0.77 mg/L heme and 303 ± 1.21 mg/L ALA. This study indicates that E. coli recombinant strains show a promising future in the field of heme and ALA production.

Abstract
Streptomyces is a significant source of natural products that are used as therapeutic antibiotics, anticancer and antitumor agents, pesticides, and dyes. Recently, with the advances in metabolite analysis, many new secondary metabolites have been characterized. Moreover, genome mining approaches demonstrate that many silent and cryptic biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) and many secondary metabolites are produced in very low amounts under laboratory conditions. One strain many compounds (OSMAC), overexpression/deletion of regulatory genes, ribosome engineering, and promoter replacement have been utilized to activate or enhance the production titer of target compounds. Hence, the heterologous expression of BGCs by transferring to a suitable production platform has been successfully employed for the detection, characterization, and yield quantity production of many secondary metabolites. In this review, we introduce the systematic approach for the heterologous production of secondary metabolites from Streptomyces in Streptomyces and other hosts, the genome analysis tools, the host selection, and the development of genetic control elements for heterologous expression and the production of secondary metabolites.

Sun L, Chi X, Feng Z, Wang K, Kai L, Zhang K, Cheng S, Hao X, Xie W, Ge Y. phz1 contributes much more to phenazine-1-carboxylic acid biosynthesis than phz2 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa rpoS mutant. J Basic Microbiol 2019; 59:914-923. [PMID: 31294863 DOI: 10.1002/jobm.201900165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2019] [Revised: 05/07/2019] [Accepted: 05/21/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, a common opportunistic bacterial pathogen, contains two phenazine-biosynthetic operons, phz1 (phzA1 B1 C1 D1 E1 F1 G1 ) and phz2 (phzA2 B2 C2 D2 E2 F2 G2 ). Each of two operons can independently encode a set of enzymes involving in the biosynthesis of phenazine-1-carboxylic acid. As a global transcriptional regulator, RpoS mediates a lot of genes involving secondary metabolites biosynthesis in many bacteria. In an other previous study, it was reported that RpoS deficiency caused overproduction of pyocyanin, a derivative of phenazine-1-carboxylic acid in P. aeruginosa PAO1. But it is not known how RpoS mediates the expression of each of two phz operons and modulates phenazine-1-carboxylic acid biosynthesis in detail. In this study, by deleting the rpoS gene in the mutant PNΔphz1 and the mutant PNΔphz2, we found that the phz1 operon contributes much more to phenazine-1-carboxylic acid biosynthesis than the phz2 operon in the absence of RpoS. With the construction of the translational and transcriptional fusion vectors with the truncated lacZ reporter gene, we demonstrated that RpoS negatively regulates the expression of phz1 and positively controls the expression of phz2, and the regulation of phenazine-1-carboxylic acid biosynthesis mediated by RopS occurs at the posttranscriptional level, not at the transcriptional level. Obviously, two copies of phz operons and their differential expression mediated by RpoS might help P. aeruginosa adapt to its diverse environments and establish infection in its hosts.
